AParisian Actress Farewell

The theatrical reports announce that

at the beginning of next month, but
that before bidding adieu to the world
she will play once more "Phedre," and
the performance will take place shortly
at the Eden theater, with the support of
the artistes Of the Coincide Franchise.
The Parisians must have strong ideas of
decornm and moral tact if they find
nothing shocking in such an announce

Arthur II. Rogers-I am doing as
much business as ever, and everything
locks very favorable. l occasionally
hear some one say that real estate is
rather dull, but can't see how that can
be. ~ year ago if we sold, during
week, $50, 900 or $4,000, we thought it a
big thing, and here we have been, for
the last eight or ten months, selling
81 ,500.000 each week. which is three
times as much as last year, and there
are men who do not think we are doing
much. | would like to know what is a
good business. This sum of 81, SOC, 900
is $3.50, 900 per day. According to my
observation it takes a pretty good-SiZed
city, some money and a pretty live
town to sell $3.50, 900 worth of real estate
day afterday and that is whatSt. Paul has
done for the last eight or ten months,
and some weeks we have gone even
S500,000 beyond this; and even now, in
this dull season of the year, when we do
not expect to do great deal, I'll bet we
will r>.n Il good deal over a million this
very week. l do not say the market is
active by any means, but say it is not
dull, and prices are very firm.
